The water was caught by the careful wife of the village chief. My heart couldn't help but tighten again, and I secretly sighed at the tenacity and difficulty of this girl.
Xu Qinghe's concern for Yin Yunjie was not limited to the relationship between husband and wife. Even though they were just friends, he could not help but feel worried when he learned that the other was seriously injured.
Although the book does not mention Yin Yunjie's character in much detail, and may even have glossed over his marginal status, the suffering that Yin Yunjie is experiencing is absolutely real in reality.
Xu Qinghe felt mixed emotions, fearing that her arrival would inadvertently disrupt the rhythm of the plot, and thus affect the situation on Yin Yunjie's side, making the situation, which was already difficult to control, even more complicated.
"Grandpa, grandma, please do me a favor. If anyone asks about me, just say I went to visit distant relatives."
Xu Qinghe not only said this to the two elders, but also emphasized it again to the village head and his wife.
The two elderly people exchanged glances and nodded in tacit understanding. They obviously understood that such family disgrace should not be made public, and they readily agreed.
Xu Qinghe didn't want to waste any time, so he hurried back home, quickly put the necessary items into his backpack, and then set off for the county town.
Unexpectedly, the superiors attached great importance to this matter and specially sent someone to wait at the station. Not only did they prepare a sleeper ticket for her, they also promised to take her directly to the city railway station.
The man had all the necessary documents and letters of introduction on him. After repeated verification, Xu Qinghe confirmed their authenticity and got into the car with peace of mind.
Compared to the slow speed of the shuttle bus, the speed of the car made her feel a little relieved.
After arriving at the train station, she handed the young man who helped her a can of homemade fermented bean curd as a thank you, and without stopping for too long, she turned around and stepped into the carriage.
Train tickets usually need to be booked in advance, and even if you have enough money, you may not be able to buy a suitable seat. Xu Qinghe had foreseen this and made a backup plan for this - if he failed to buy a ticket, he would use the motorcycle in the space.
Although it is not as fast as a car, it is much better than waiting in vain.
Now that someone is buying the tickets for her, Xu Qinghe is naturally filled with gratitude. Although she doesn't know who this kind leader is, she silently remembers this kindness in her heart and looks forward to having the opportunity to repay it in the future.
Even though she had the best sleeper berth, the long train journey was still very agonizing for Xu Qinghe. She was prone to motion sickness and could barely endure short trips, but the long journey for several consecutive days was a huge test for her body and mind.
She had hardly eaten any food in the past few days, and when she occasionally felt nauseous, she suppressed it by relying on the spicy fermented bean curd she carried with her.
The moment she walked out of the station, Xu Qinghe's world seemed to be still shaking with the rhythm of the train, and her head was heavy and her feet were light. But the moment she thought of Yin Yunjie, she immediately strengthened her will and walked out of the station step by step with determination.
Just as she was thinking about how to get to the hospital, a young soldier in a green military uniform with a childish face ran towards her and asked, "Excuse me, are you Comrade Xu Qinghe?"
Xu Qinghe nodded slightly, and the young soldier went on to introduce himself: "My name is Huang Yuan. Commander Qian sent me to take you to the hospital. Let's set off now."
Although Xu Qinghe thanked him with a smile, he felt mixed emotions inside. He had just finished a dizzying train journey and now he had to continue riding. Only those who had experienced it could understand the unspeakable pain.
Fortunately, the young soldier had steady driving skills, the vehicle drove smoothly, and there were almost no sudden brakes, and he took her directly to the military hospital.
"Director Yin underwent surgery three days ago. The operation went smoothly, but due to the severity of his injuries, he has not yet regained consciousness and is still under observation in the intensive care unit."
On the way, the young soldier briefly explained Yin Yunjie's condition, which made Xu Qinghe both worried and slightly relieved.
Looking back on the emergency situation at that time, there was really no other way except to perform quick surgery.
All these inconveniences are ultimately due to the lack of transportation.
If the road was unobstructed, she would be able to give Yin Yunjie the magical water with healing effects before the operation, which might greatly improve his condition and prevent him from not waking up so long after the operation.
Now, the success of the operation is at least a blessing in disguise. Xu Qinghe felt comforted when he heard the good news of a glimmer of hope as soon as he got off the train.
She firmly believed that, as written in the book, although Yin Yunjie was a marginal character, he had never been involved in the fierce conflicts of the main plot, so he would definitely be able to turn danger into safety!
Especially now, she was carrying the precious spiritual water, which gave her more confidence in Yin Yunjie's recovery.
"Comrade, thank you so much! I'm going to see my husband right now. Please accept this. We made it at home. If you don't mind..."
As he spoke, Xu Qinghe handed him another bottle of fermented bean curd, full of sincerity and gratitude.
The young man followed the instructions of Master Qian closely, being extremely cautious and careful with every step. His mind was as clear as a mirror, and he clearly realized that Xu Qinghe's craftsmanship was by no means ordinary, especially the fermented bean curd she made by hand, which was fragrant and mouth-watering.
When he took the can of fermented bean curd, his face was filled with sincere gratitude, and his tone was filled with a bit of kindness and respect. He said, "Oh, sister-in-law, you are so considerate and thoughtful. I feel so sorry that you still care about such a small thing."
The two walked slowly side by side to the ward door. The young man paused, cleared his throat, and called out to his companions who were caring for Yin Yunjie in a gentle but powerful voice. He then introduced them one by one: "This is Comrade Zhang Jianjun, assigned by Commander Qian to take care of our respected Director Yin. As for this person, I believe I don't need to say much, you all know her. She is Director Yin's most solid supporter, Comrade Xu Qinghe."
His introduction was thoughtful and appropriate, making everyone present feel valued and the air was filled with a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
Xu Qinghe took over the conversation, speaking in a gentle and grateful tone, "Hello, Comrade Zhang! You've worked so hard for Yin Yunjie during this period. From now on, I will take over his care. This is a can of our homemade fermented bean curd, and it tastes very authentic. You must try it, and don't be polite with me!"
The fermented bean curd in her hand seemed to be the key to breaking the unfamiliarity. It not only cleverly eased the awkwardness of the first meeting, but also inadvertently promoted the special food of her hometown, killing two birds with one stone.
Zhang Jianjun looked at Xu Qinghe's beautiful and kind face, his smile became more sincere, and his heart was filled with admiration for this woman.
Afterwards, he gave Xu Qinghe a detailed introduction to Yin Yunjie's recent recovery, and repeatedly reassured her not to worry too much, as everything was moving in the right direction.
After saying this, he and Comrade Huang Yuan, who came with him, respectfully said goodbye and left.
